I recently took a series of winter skiing photos, and the feeling of being active has returned after a long time.
To be honest, the actual equipment looks better in person than in photos. Standing on the ski slope and casually taking a shot feels like a blockbuster, and the attention it draws is ridiculously high. The moment I put on the full gear and stand at the top of the slope, ready to ski, a sudden thought flashes through my mind — skiing and trading are actually quite similar.
Think about it: traders focus on the patterns of K-lines; skiers focus on slope gradient, speed, and landing points. The market has rhythm, and the ski trail emphasizes balance. Looking at charts is to judge trends; observing the ski trail is to adjust posture.
Essentially, both are about finding balance along a constantly changing path. This is also what I’ve been emphasizing — trading is fundamentally a dynamic, ongoing process. It’s not about rigid rules that never change, but about continuously adjusting and responding amid change.
Winter is here, and when it’s time to move, you have to get active. Whether skiing or trading, the most important thing is to find your own rhythm.

ngl the skiing-trading metaphor hits different, but like... if you're actually treating markets like a black run, you're probably gonna get liquidated lol. dynamic process sure, but the data on "finding your rhythm" suggests most retail just chase volatility and call it risk management 🤷

Skiing is much simpler than trading; at least when you fall, there's snow to cushion you.

Skiing is much easier than trading; you can get up even after falling... Losing money in trading is what really hurts.

Talking about skiing and trading together, I really love this vibe. I'm just worried someone might only learn how to fall.

Haha, comparing skiing and trading made me laugh, but it seems like there's actually some truth to it.
